Why do I think that I could learn precalculus http://www.themathpage.com/aprecalc/precalculus.htm in two weeks?
Seriously everything I read there is easy as fuck and I have read that it takes 4 months to learn precalculus.
What am I doing?

Pre-calc is high school shit dude
If you dedicate some time you can learn it quick

I know i understand everything immediately but why do they say it takes so long to learn it

>>9158262
I'd say it doesn't take long to learn, just takes a while to master and set in.

Whats the biology behind women being worse than men at video games? SMore specifically, at esports. And if general athletic differences in real sports carry over to vidya (i.e. men are better than women), why are blacks worse at them than whites?

Women have more abilities to build and maintain relationships therefore tend to not spend their time alone in their mom's basement, a necessity to excel at e-sports?

>The Chinese are massively investing in AI research and tech, while the Trump administration is cutting federal programs wholesale.
>Elon Musk came out with another artificial intelligence warning on Monday. The SpaceX and Tesla CEO suggested that AI could be the cause of a third world war.
>Russian president Vladimir Putin has joined the war of words concerning the international race to develop artificial intelligence. Speaking to students last Friday, Putin predicted that whichever country leads the way in AI research will come to dominate global affairs.
>The mathematician and winner of the prestigious Fields Medal and deputy Cédric Villani was commissioned by the french government of a mission on artificial intelligence.
So... Are we entering in a new era ? AI is not science-fiction anymore, it's a thing that hit even politicians and governments.
I predict that progresses will be enormous in a few years. But it seems that the US are not in the hype train.

Can you call yourself good at math if you're good at calculating and solving problems but can't prove anything worth shit?
I mean, I can learn proofs for exams but if you were to wake me up in the middle of a night 4 months from then I wouldn't be able to do it.
Can real mathematicians, say someone with a Phd in math prove most given theorems at any given time?

Proving things is literally problem solving.

>Can real mathematicians, say someone with a Phd in math prove most given theorems at any given time
Yes. That's literally where everything important comes from. The type of math you're doing, where you get a question and end up with a number as an answer, is something a computer can do for you. Proofs are the only way to understand exactly what you have to do to figure something out - under any condition. It's what real mathematicians do for a living.

Well then how do I get better? I want to think like a true mathematician.

>In this film, Brian Cox gains exclusive access behind the scenes at Virgin Galactic, Blue Origin and Spaceport America, exploring what is really happening in privately financed space flight right now.
>From space tourism to asteroid mining, and even dreams of colonies on Mars, these new masters of the universe refuse to limit their imaginations. But are private companies led by Jeff Bezos, Sir Richard Branson and Elon Musk really going to be able to pull this off? How will they overcome the technical challenges to achieve it? And is it really a good idea, or just a fool's errand?
Did anyone watch this? it was pretty interesting. How long do you think until we can go on a trip to space?

he wasted his time with a bunch of people that have only gone sub orbital and never done a single paying customer flight.
Musk is going to be on Mars by the time Blue Origin or Virgin Galactic are doing commercial flight.

people paids tens of millions to fly to the ISS. and some how the USA and europe allowed it.

I think social isolation causes /pol/tardism.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_isolation
I am saying this as a /pol/tard.
I was totally normal until I had a psychotic break at 19 and had to move back in with my parents. I'm medicated now. I even used to have a sex life. I currently haven't had sex in like 18 months, and before then I had a 4 year dry spell.
Social isolation makes your tolerance go to zero. You're not getting laid or getting paid, so you have no patience for anything. Every terrorist attack and beaner riot is a personal slight against you instead of something you don't care about.
Pol's heaviest users are socially isolated. They talk about things that most normal white people are concerned with, but they delegate the problem to people like Trump, and then stop thinking about it. For the /pol/tard, the ride never ends. There are always "happenings" and new "redpills" to swallow.
50 years ago, these men would have just drank, but memes are cheaper than alcohol now, and you can't win Twitter arguments while drunk.
The fact that our society has produced such a large class of socially isolated young men is a huge indictment of our economic system. Anyone who intrudes on their space (social media or video games) is targeted. Young men are being excluded, and this is leading to real biochemical changes in them that make them more amenable to fascist rhetoric. We live in wealthy societies. There is absolutely no economic justification for this. It needs to stop.
Most /pol/tards are too stupid for metacognition. Thankfully, I have caught myself before falling too far. I graduate from university this academic year.
